[Sports Today reporter Jeong Ye-won] IU, the lead in MBC’s new Friday–Saturday drama ’21st Century Grand Military Wife,’ showed a decidedly tough streak.

The series premiered on the 10th, introducing Seong Hee-ju (IU).

That day, Castle Group heiress Seong Hee-ju called out slipping sales compared to rival companies and ordered a background check on a commercial model, revealing a steely, uncompromising side.

She drew attention — and provoked controversy — by arriving at the king’s birthday banquet in a red dress. Public reaction split between those who condemned her actions and those who admired her looks.

Rumors swirled: people whispered that she was the child of the chairman’s mistress, raised separately and sent to him at around age 10 — some even suggested she might be an illegitimate child of commoners. “That’s why she lacks honor, dignity, manners and common sense,” they muttered. She then smashed a glass and smiled nonchalantly.
